I've had great luck with Brother printers.  We have a small duplex laser 
and a cheap single-sided inkjet all-in-one that work quite well, and 
Brother specifically offers Linux drivers.  Both have wireless network 
connectivity, and cost less than $200/ea.  The inkjet seems fine with 
cheap off-brand refills.

Printers these days are a lot like cars: old, durable and 
high-maintenance, or new, disposable and zero-maintenance.
